Steve Forbert - January 23 30 1978 Lyrics

(try capoing up 3)
G D Am G D
Plane comes down on the old runway, home again for a week I'll stay
G D Am G D
Hanging out like I used to do, hope to find some old friends I knew
G D Am G D
Hear the news in the honky tonk, who got married, yes, and who split up G
D Am G D
Drinking beer while the jukebox plays, brand new songs for brand new days
C G D Am
Quiet nights and empty streets, sleepy town, humble home
C G D
Same old waltz in the wind, by the railroad track
G D Am G D
Riding out to a country bridge, moonlight shining across the ridge
G D Am G
Frozen trees neath a billion stars, 7 friends jammed in Robby's car
C G D Am
High as kites and wild and gone, drunk as well and laughing loud
C G D
Back at home I say good night (Good night) and I close the door
G D Am G
Sunday morning the church bell rings, the organ plays and the choir
D G D Am
sings. Where am I while the preacher speaks? Dreaming dreams neath
G D
my sheets asleep
C G D Am C
Waking up and trying to think, what went down, what'd we do? I rub
G D
my eyes and I shake my head and feel the sun
G D Am G
Plane takes off on the old runway, snow fell light on the ground
D G D Am G
today Lost an hour that I gained before, headed back to my New York
D G D Am D
door. fare thee well, adios, adieu and best of luck to all of you I
G D Am
ain't no saint and I don't pretend to be, but I hope you all found a G
D
friend in me
C G D Am
City lights blink and shine, down below, let it change
C G D
It's often said that life is strange, oh yes, but compared to what?

(yeah) G D Am
